My Spark is called Mr. Lucky, because he has nine lives. Probably has about 4-5 left. I made a video today and crashed into a tree! Fortunately, the drone sat at the top of the tree without falling, motors were still running. I was able to get it back into the air. The video quality is not too great, because the video got messed up and I had to use software to repair it. So it looks a little funky.

 
I got my spark stuck in a tree once this past winter. Had to get a long telescoping pole to poke it out of a tree that was 20 feet from the ground.
 
Wow. You got lucky on that. I would've made sure that it was clear of the tree tops before dropping the hammer in sport mode.
 
If we didn't have these little 'events' life would be so boring. I think.lol. All's well that ends well. (All that open sky and you found a tree to hit. Ha)
 
The trees are about 100 feet tall. From where I was standing I thought the Spark would just graze the top of the trees, as I did in another video. Not so lucky this time. :) This is what I was going for.

You were trying the reveal mode, one of my favourites...its risky since we have to disable obstacle detection to fly close to the object
